This is way cool. I love it.
@Ken G: I'm totally digging those Neurodiversity images. Let's get something like those going.
I think what we need to do, regarding the name, is to come up with say 3 or 4 options that everybody thinks are good, and then create a poll where people can vote for which one they prefer (so we are doing this diplomatically). Once we have determined the winning vote, we can then ask alex to make a final say on it.
Alternatively, we can draw up a list of name ideas, then send the list to alex where he can choose.
So far, I believe a large proportion of us have agreed on "AutWorld" so that can be our first option.
I also like where you are going SC_2010, but I feel the name also needs to somehow reflect that this is both a WP founded and Autism gathering, plus I feel the title itself needs to be quite short and snappy - so people can remember and refer to it easily (although then we could elaborate further with a subtitle). However, this is just my perspective - thus making it only one persons opinion. It's very important we create a democratic decision-making process for the big decisions otherwise we will quickly descend into chaos.
I agree! Short and to the point, my tagline from earlier is just something I pictured on a poster.
Voting is the way to go, so let's keep brainstorming some more ideas!

Ok, well so far we have:
- AutWorld
- A Convergence of Divergent Minds/Thinkers? (would you prefer "minds" or "thinkers"? Actually, this title is growing on me too)
If anybody else is brainstorming and narrowing it down to a specific concept, could you post the name idea (just individual) up and ask for it to be added to the list? If you would like to group brainstorm, as we have been doing, just post up lists of ideas as previously.

My idea really wasn't for a name but more of a slogan...too long for a name!

Oh ok, then we are all still pretty settled on Autworld. I guess if anyone comes up with an alternative we can vote at that point. I like your idea for a slogan!
